MINNEAPOLIS, March 12, 2013 — (PRNewswire) — �Agile Frameworks, LLC, an independent software vendor (ISV) in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) vertical market, has signed a new client for its MetaField®, AgilePort® and AgileStamp® cloud-based solutions.

Rone Engineering Services, Ltd., of Dallas, TX, is a multidisciplinary engineering firm specializing in geotechnical engineering, environmental engineering, materials testing and inspections and observations and is currently in the implementation phase of the deployment of MetaField. The company has four offices in Texas.

MetaField, a mobile enterprise application platform (MEAP) is designed for engineering firms specializing in geotechnical, environmental, non-destructive engineering/testing and construction materials testing to perform onsite data collection. MetaField's emphasis on mobility optimization reflects the remote nature of the business, and accelerates the entire field data collection and report generation process in a more accurate way via smart phones or other mobile devices. A return on investment (ROI) of two to five months is typical, dependent upon the size of the firm and the number of field personnel and project management staff.

Richard Leigh, president, stated: "We were in the process of beginning to develop an in-house system for automating the field data collection and report delivery processes. When we found out about Agile Frameworks, we took a hard look at everything they have to offer and made the decision to go forward with them instead of building these systems ourselves. We want a system that will be continually updated and supported for the long term, and we chose to partner with the team at Agile Frameworks. We are excited to move forward with them and we look forward to realizing many benefits which include data visualization, GIS capabilities and fast turnaround for all of the data that we are collecting on behalf of our clients."

"We are excited to partner with the team at Rone Engineering. They have shown a great deal of passion in being able to utilize our systems in innovative ways," stated Doug Bonestroo, vice president of business development for Agile Frameworks. Brian Hase, CTO of Agile Frameworks, added, "The team at Rone Engineering is committed to delivering leading edge services to their clients and we look forward to working with them."
